10. The University of Oxford is strongly committed to ensuring the widest possible access to research. Our academics, researchers, staff and students must be free to publish in the journal of their choice, maintaining academic freedom. Oxford Research Archive (ORA) was established in 2007. It provides a permanent and secure archive of our research and a means for institutional compliance with funders’ Open Access requirements. The University favours, now and for the foreseeable future, open access by means of the Green Route. University OA Statement
